NOTES

This is the first and only episode where the name of the actor playing the Doctor is not the first name to appear in the title sequence (Jenna Coleman appears first).

The Doctor is declared President of Earth following a UNIT protocol according to which, in the event of full-scale invasion, an Earth president is inducted immediately, with complete authority over every nation state’s armies. However, this is in slight error as there fifteen countries without a standing army.

It is revealed that Missy was the ‘woman in the shop’ from whom Clara received the Doctor’s phone number for Wi-Fi support, as well as being the one that left the hint in a newspaper which led Clara and the Doctor to ending up in the hideout of the Clockwork Droids. (The Bells of Saint John)
